My biggest problem is that people are going to have to get used to more advanced systems anyways. It's not long before almost every profession is going to need at least some computer knowledge. It's a disservice to the market.

I looked into that, and it looks like the vast majority of them are adware. So not "lots of viruses". They reported an increase of "200 samples since last year", which isn't massive either.

I'm not delusional as in believing that OSX will forever be an exceptionally safe operating system, but at this point in time I'm not really worried. The amount of viruses being developed for mac is still low enough for Apple to be able to quickly add native immunity against them.

Hey I don't use Mac, and ill be the first to say I have little experience or knowledge about them. I just remember that was their staple a few years ago. Also Comment #70 Don't get butthurt Lainge its Christmas

I agree (I also don't use apple). they are very user friendly too. when my mom asked what kind of phone to get, I told her to get an iphone cause I knew it had what she wanted and would be happy with it.
while I don't plan on using apple, I can see that they do make good products that can be used by most people, even those who don't care about or need overpowered computers.

tldr; i don't use apple, and don't think they deserve the hate they get.
